Linux servers are known for their reliability and security, but proactive measures are needed to secure them against vulnerabilities and attacks.
Threats to Linux servers include brute-force attacks, rootkits and malware, denial of service (DoS) attacks, and zero-day vulnerabilities.
Managing user access and implementing effective access control are critical for server security.
Adopting measures like keeping software up to date, configuring firewalls, using strong passwords, and implementing intrusion detection systems can further enhance server security.
